Innovation is at the core of our business.
While many competitors are stuck in their ways, at DEGIRO we embrace innovation from our unique offerings, below are the four pillars which we have built our business around.
Global access
Through DEGIRO, European investors are connected to the world’s markets. Unlike our competitors, many of whom only offer access to European and US exchanges, DEGIRO also offers access to markets in Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, and many more across the globe. This provides clients with the opportunity to benefit from a truly global diversification of assets.
In-house development
In conjunction with its competitive pricing and a large selection of markets, DEGIRO also undertakes the innovative development of innovative trading tools. All of our platforms are developed in-house and tailored around the needs of our clients. Currently, over 2.500.000 clients are contributing to a better trading environment while simultaneously reaping the benefit of low commission and access to global exchanges. Never has it been so easy to achieve a well-diversified portfolio on a global scale.
Reducing costs
By combining efficiency and economies of scale, DEGIRO has proven that this is possible within the financial sector. The efficient working structure of DEGIRO, is reflected in very low fees. By becoming globally active, DEGIRO can continue to grow, continue to reduce costs, and further increase investment into our services.

Our story
Our journey began in 2013 when we revolutionised the retail investing industry with the launch of our services in the Netherlands. Just 10 years later, we are proud to have become the leading broker in Europe, offering our services in 16 countries all over Europe.
Continued growth
In 2022, we reached 2M clients in Europe and surpassed 100K clients in Italy & Portugal. We were also proud to take home new awards, giving us over international recognitions in total. And we kept working on improving our platform, adding new features like the Dark Mode and Top lists.
Improved platform
In 2021, we added an extensive amount of financial data, such as ESG ratings and Analyst Views, and began rolling out flatexDEGIRO Cash Accounts, a new solution to hold uninvested money. We also began offering investing on Tradegate Exchange, allowing for pre-market and after-hours trading.
The next chapter
